Rising Star Reveal Rainbow Islands DS Details News
Gameplay make-over for the classic title announced by Rising Star ahead of the February 2006 release...
By Jon WilcoxPosted: 13/12/2005
Rising Star Games has today announced further details of its Rainbow Islands update for the DS, Rainbow Islands Revolution. With the control system totally reliant on the DS' touch screen, Rising Star has changed the gameplay so that main character (Bub or Bob) now floats on a cloud, controlled by the DS stylus. Casting rainbows is now accomplished drawing them on screen though the length of them are restricted though Rising Star has confirmed that they can be upgraded by collecting various power-ups along the way. The rainbows have also been evolved to trap enemies, depending on the amount of rainbow power.
Harvest Moon artist Igusa Matsuyama has been brought in to design the new sprites of both Bob/Bub and the enemies, though they retain their distinct feel of the original 1980s classic.
Rainbow Islands Revolution is set for release on Nintendo DS in February 2006; we'll have more shortly...

Its A1 crap. I can't understand why you can't use the normal controls if you want rather than the stylus. As a left hander I can't ever see what I'm doing on the screen as my hand covers most of it. Really really disapointed.
